Edelfosine nanoemulsions inhibit tumor growth of triple negative breast cancer in zebrafish xenograft model

Abstract Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is known for being very aggressive, heterogeneous and highly metastatic. The standard of care treatment is still chemotherapy, with adjacent toxicity and low efficacy, highlighting the need for alternative and more effective therapeutic strategies. Edelf...
